🌲The Wood Hedgehog

Welcome to De Bos Egel, an attractive holiday home for up to 4 people (and a baby), located directly on the edge of the forest in Diessen in Brabant. Here you can enjoy peace, nature and privacy, while at the same time you can use all the facilities of the adjacent holiday park.

Wake up to birdsong, drink your first cup of coffee on the terrace among the greenery and leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life behind for a while. Whether you come for a relaxing family holiday, an active walking or cycling weekend or a romantic stay for two, De Bos Egel offers everything for a carefree stay in nature.

🏡 The holiday home

De Bos Egel has recently been renovated with great care and comfortably furnished. The cozy living room is the heart of the cottage and features a comfortable sitting area, dining area, air conditioning and an atmospheric wood stove for the cooler evenings.

The recently renovated kitchen is fully equipped to prepare an extensive breakfast, lunch or dinner. In addition, the cottage has a modern bathroom, a separate toilet and two bedrooms:

  • One bedroom with comfortable double bed
  • A bedroom with bunk beds

For families with young children, a high chair and a cot are available on request.

🌿 Enjoy the outdoors

The location of De Bos Egel is unique. The cottage is located at the back of a quiet and car-free park, right on the edge of the forest. This allows you to enjoy a lot of privacy and walk straight into nature from the garden.

Under the covered porch you can sit outside almost all year round. Start the day with a cup of coffee in the morning sun, listen to the birds in the trees or end the evening with a drink as the sun slowly disappears behind the forest.

🎈 Swimming pool and park facilities

As a guest of De Bos Egel, you can use all the facilities of the adjacent holiday park for free. A short walk away you will find, among other things:

  • Outdoor swimming pool with paddling pool (seasonal)
  • Various playgrounds
  • Football field and basketball court
  • Tennis court and miniature golf
  • Large air cushion
  • Restaurant and grand café
  • Mini market
  • Bread roll service
  • Bike rental
  • Laundry

This way you combine the tranquility of a privately located forest house with the amenities of a complete holiday park.

🚶 Discover the Brabantse Kempen

De Bos Egel is located in the middle of the beautiful Land of De Hilver, an area known for its forests, heaths, fens and picturesque villages. From the cottage you can walk or cycle directly into nature.
